Well, that was encouraging. Dinner time: Baked Tilapia, in a nice Olive oil and Apple juice marinade. Chicken flavored rice with a side of Green Beans. Not bad. She won’t touch the fish. Rice is gone. Beans are gone:

Me: Fine. Here. (cuts into smaller pieces) You need to eat three pieces.

Princess: THHRREEEE?

Wife: Ok, two. But you stay there until you finish.

Dinner almost done. Princess got a little more rice. Monkey needs to be changed.

Me: You need to eat those two pieces.

Princess: (enthusiastically) OK! I will.

Something is up. She sounded too eager. Set Monkey on changing pad. Walk back down hall. Look around corner. “HEY!” In front of the trash, Princess looks up. Eyes wide. Yup. BUSTED! Sent to room. 30 minutes later, She’s out. Sent back to room. One hour later, let her out of room. Time for bed. Take vitamin. Go brush teeth. Good Night! Think she’ll try it again? Yup. Get busted again? YUP!
